Thank you, seniors 
I am from the class of 2018 and don’t know what it’s like now.
Is the diversion exam you mentioned the one where if you fail, you get downgraded to the 5-year program?
As for us, the exam content was based on the regular class material, so just prepare like for the final exam.
It’s best to ask seniors from the classes 1 or 2 years ahead.
Alright, it’s not a downgrade haha, it’s a branch hospital.
That’s awkward. We didn’t have separate hospital exams back then; I think that only started with the class of 2021.
Besides, how would the exams for separate hospitals work? Would the higher scorers get to choose the hospital first?
That’s right, whoever scores higher gets to choose the hospital first.
I’m not sure how the exam is conducted either, only that it’s all case studies—one section on Traditional Chinese Medicine and another on Western Medicine—and it’s supposed to cover what we’ve studied, but there are no materials at all. Such unfortunate kids.
Then I don’t think there’s a need to be so anxious; in fact, the medical schools are pretty similar.
When it comes to graduate studies, it mostly depends on the guidance of the advisor’s team and one’s own initiative to learn.
Besides that, the training and tasks performed during standardized residency programs are pretty much the same across different medical schools.
